Re: Tomo V4 for Sale

Just did the deal with axo. Great guy to deal with. Not a fat kaaarnt, but a pretty big unit apparantly. And board is 2 1/4, not 2/12 thick

Re: Fiji 2012

Shit commentary is part of the sport within sport. We have opinions of who is and who isn't good at it, and we express them. When we don't like someone, it makes us feel better to have a bitch.
